I'd give my hearing because no sound could ever substitute for the beauty that can only be known from sight.
Ummmm no music! no sound of a child's laughter? beauty of the eye can be deceiving!

Not seeing the joy on that child's face? Seeing the tears of happiness at a graduation or wedding? Seeing the look on your SO's face? You can read lips and know what's being said but a sound can't do it justice.
@Iluvpanties365: point taken but touch with hearing can convey most all messages i even more personal terms!

I feel there have been so many times I wish I could just tune out the sounds of the world, to include my children but I couldn't imagine never being able to enjoy the sight of anything. Most everything has to be vocal without sight but but so many things can be visibly spoken without saying a word. It's obviously a personal preference, mine just happens to be the gift of sight.
It's not an argument, just playing the devils advocate saying there are two sides to the coin, Sight is wonderful but also leads to build inn predigest we assume many thing with the sight of the become blind to what lies beneath
